Will a 2 inch wand work with a porty
« on: August 29, 2008, 07:13:05 pm »
Lokking at putting a 2 inch pipe on my speedster, will it be ok to use a 2 inch wand or am I better using the one and a half inch pipe wand.

Use 2" with my Recoil significantly improves airflow, go for it ;)

Yes I know that they use it on the Scorpion although users will harp on about extra vac it's an electric porti just like yours, you can buy from Woodbridge a 2" adapter kit that you put on your machine to go 2" to the vac tank.

PS I use 2.5" on my Boxxer 427 TM but that struggled on my Boxxer 421 IMO but I get lock down sometimes, do you have a glide for your wand?

Newer speedsters  have 2" inlet. I use it when going over 50ft and a 1.5 whip.

What I mean is should I go with a 2 inch wand or whip it down to 1 and a half.

Yeah a great, if noisy porty, but seriously considering an upgrade to a TM.

Drying times great and far better now Ive adapted it for 2" hose.
